This error message sounds strange.  Exactly what did you do?

ispell-program-name is an Emacs variable (not a function), and if you
need to use it, you should typically write this in your .emacs file:

    (setq ispell-program-name "ispell")

Be careful to use normal space or tab characters, not the
non-breakable space, since that can be part of symbols in GNU Emacs
Lisp, and does not separate symbols.

C-h a (apropos-command) only shows information on commands
(interactive functions).  Most often, M-x apropos is more powerful.
In this case, C-h v ispell-program-name gives me the following
explanation:

    ispell-program-name's value is "ispell"
    Documentation:
    Program invoked by M-$ and M-x ispell-region commands.
    You can customize this variable.
    Defined in `ispell'.

If C-h v ispell-program-name does not show you this information,
perhaps ispell.el is missing from your installation.
